Green entered with 4:20 left in the 1st quarter. He leaves with 5:23 left in the 2nd. He re-enters the game with 6:09 left in the 3rd before leaving with 6:03 left in the 4th. He comes back with 25.7 seconds left in the game.

Which of these options are superior to what Doc actually did?-Leave Green in for the rest of the game and play him 18 consecutive minutes?-Leave Green in the game and take him out only when he has obviously run out of energy? (And if you believe this, can you demonstrate that he hadn't reached that point yet?)-Take Green out earlier with the intention of putting him back in for several minutes at the end of the game?-Take Green out at roughly the same time, but give him 2-3 minutes rest then put him back in?
